DF Gameplay Questions / Atom smash artifacts to make room for new ones?
« on: April 19, 2012, 09:05:04 pm »
The title says it all. Is it possible? I have 21 artifacts and the ones that are really useful seem to be a steel crossbow (my marksdwarf squadleader goes "pew pew" with his shiny sniper rifle :D), an obsidian floodgate for my duke who conviniently likes floodgates and a green glass coffin (this is dwarf fortress, not snow white, armok damn it!) for the royal tomb. I haven't seen artifacts for a year now, and I read that the total number of artifacts is related to the number of tiles, that are dug out. So, should some of those granite bracelets and gabbro rings, the precious diorite toy boat and perhaps even the most valued nickel scepter get lost accidentally, would my dwarfs start to crank out new artifacts?

DF Gameplay Questions / Difficulties with the clothing system
« on: April 03, 2012, 09:29:50 pm »
So I climbed the learning cliff a bit with the version 0.34.04 and my current fort is the first one that actually (somehow) works. Since I have caught and caged a male and a female roc, I instantly upgraded to 0.34.07 when I read about animal taming. Breeding war rocs had a nice ring to it  :D
But I missed the clothing part and now there are quite some dwarfs unhappy about being naked. Especially the children, they go berserk really fast and afterwards everything collapses in a tantrum spiral. Putting your own children down tends to upset dwarves, it seems. I think, they shouldn't do that, since "(*) Removed negative clothing thoughts for children" is in the latest changenotes.
I updated savegames and raws and added the body_rcp_eyelids.txt as recommended. I use the latest Phoebus' Graphic Set, if that makes any difference.
Sadly my savegame doesn't work with 04 anymore even with updating and everything.
I wouldn't mind restarting, but I have somehow grown attached to the fortress and I really want to keep the rocs for breeding. And "everyone died because some where naked" sounds just stupid. Where did I go wrong? Could you please help a noob? Is there a possibility to mod the need for clothes out of the raws at least for some time, to set up clothing industry? Thanks in advance :)
